But he didn't. Not counting the T at the beginning of the sentence (which should be a capital), there are as many lower case t's there as there are capitals. Amazing how many T's there are in a two-line comment, eh?

If we created a new subcategory for every combination of fetishes, no one would be able to find anything at all. Nor post it in the appropriate area (they already have a lot of trouble with that, as we who have to fix it can attest!) A better solution would use standardized tags to label the content, and then everyone could search for or block the categories to suit themselves. That would involve completely reengineering the entire site... which is being done, but it isn't @rawTOP's day job, and it takes time.

@fdiscodude The devil is in the details. Quoting from a few pages back in this topic (re. currently available age verification solutions, emphasis mine):

I've had some occasional difficulty recently with loading pages from the site. I haven't noticed any pattern to it. Reloading the browser (note - the entire browser, not just the page) seems to fix it.

Diagnosing random rashes from one picture on the internet is not something even a medical professional can do reliably, let alone a web site full of people who aren't medical professionals. See your medical provider. Further to the suggestions others have made (STDs, etc) there are plenty of random and often benign explanations for this type of symptom, for example eczema, or allergic reaction to a laundry detergent.

If you have the CCR5 Delta 32 mutation...
viking8x6 replied to prowling4u's topic in HIV Risk & Risk Reduction
The confusion here may be happening because humans each have two copies of the CCR5 gene. People who have one copy with the delta-32 mutation (and one normal copy) are resistant to HIV, but can still acquire it. This is called "heterozygous" - that's what @PozBearWI is. People who have both copies with the delta-32 mutation are immune to HIV (for practical purposes, though they might still be able to be infected using some kind of drastic biotech method). This is called "homozygous". I didn't do an extensive search, but at least one scientific publication explains that a patient cured of HIV after bone marrow transplant received the transplanted marrow from a homozygous (double delta 32) donor. -
What are you most optimistic about in political developments in 2025?
viking8x6 replied to nanana's topic in LGBT Politics
Or perhaps, in the spirit of the holiday season, the OP intended this topic as a genuine invitation to share optimism and (as he says) hope. There's no real reason this one needs to be contentious. -
A new movie is coming out about HIV in Cuba in the '90s. Opens today in New York and Los Angeles, limited nationwide release on Christmas. More from NBC News: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/los-frikis-movie-cuban-punk-hiv-escape-repression-rcna184386?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us

I was drunk and ended up sucking my friends dick
viking8x6 replied to Hornyg5618's topic in Cocksucking Discussion
Been there, done that - he was drunk, too - and afterward he asked me please not to tell his wife... Then some time later contacted me when he was drunk to say he had been fantasizing about me fucking him. So many guys who have been "straight" all their lives (50 years or more) and there in the back of their heads are things they never look at unless their inhibitions are inhibited. And then they do. As long as everyone can be civilized afterwards, no harm done. -
PUBLIC Forum and personal information (ICYMI)
viking8x6 replied to viking8x6's topic in Tips, Tricks, Rules & Help
The problem is you can't correct it, we have to do it, because of the way the system works. And we're volunteers. So the idea is if you can't post for a few days it might help you remember not to do it again next time. If you're having trouble remembering, though, you're not alone. Read the topic below for tips (hopefully helpful) on how to avoid the problem: -
Similar experience with Truvada when I was hospitalized recently. A doctor came in all concerned that they needed to make sure I was getting it, and I had to explain that it was prophylactic and there was no need, given that I wasn't going to be having sex in the hospital. Though one of the LPN's was mighty tempting... Yes, they are used for treatment, along with other drugs (though not often, given the availability of combination pills).

The Suburban in the Forest
viking8x6 replied to bentover4u1972's topic in Bug Chasing & Gift Giving FICTION
As a huge fan of outdoor sex, I cannot thank you enough for this! 💦💦💦 -
Hell, I couldn't get action nightly even when I lived in SF. And back then it wasn't on account of my looks...

Such a sexy beast, and such a fun attitude. Definitely on my favorites list.

Notifications - filtering out comments on pics...
viking8x6 replied to AirmaxUK's topic in Tips, Tricks, Rules & Help
As far as I know, there's no way to do this in the current system. FWIW, when you upload library images, you have the option to set comments allowed or disallowed. -
How long is PrEP (Truvada) detectable in blood?
viking8x6 replied to tonio's topic in PrEP Discussion
If you haven't been getting your kidney function checked regularly as part of the PrEP, then the blood test might detect an issue with kidney function caused by the PrEP. But that's the whole idea, innit? You really do want to keep your kidneys working, and if Truvada is messing with them, your PrEP provider needs to know that and switch drugs. -
I believe you are referring to the "harm to the community" policy provisions that were put in place in March 2021 by @rawTOP (the site owner). You can read his explanation of them as well as a VERY long discussion about it, which includes the question of "...go[ing] one way or the other, and not try[ing] to be all things to all people..." here:

"You are only allowed to send 0 messages per day"
viking8x6 replied to a topic in Tips, Tricks, Rules & Help
As I have stated a number of times (above in this topic): We (the moderation staff) DON'T know exactly how the advancement system works. What we DO know is that: It is not time-based, but participation-based. If you create an account and never post anything, you will remain a "New Member" forever. The algorithm involves not just the number of posts you make, but the "quality" of those posts. I can't tell you more than that because the moderation staff are not privy to the details. It is not ridiculously difficult to attain the status of "Member". People have done it with 50 posts or so, in less than a year. -
"You are only allowed to send 0 messages per day"
viking8x6 replied to a topic in Tips, Tricks, Rules & Help
See above at this post: -
My understanding (based on various reports on NPR) is that the report isn't finished yet, so they are kicking the release vote down the road to the next meeting (Dec 5 if memory serves).

Adding images to messages or profile
viking8x6 replied to Disposal4Seed's topic in Tips, Tricks, Rules & Help
You need to be more descriptive about which pictures you're referring to. The thumbnail ID picture on posts is copied by the system from your profile avatar picture, if that's what you're talking about. This topic is about (full-sized) pictures inserted into the body of a private message or profile activity post. -
Sort of recent, anyway. I found this mildly amusing, because I moved to West Virginia in '17 and registered Republican for exactly the same reason (because local and state offices were decided in the primaries). The US *is* essentially a two-party system. MAGA isn't a party, it's a political movement, closely aligned with Donald Trump, whose politics are NOT aligned well with those of the old-guard Republican party here in the States. More here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_America_Great_Again You can certainly vote for the Republican nominee without being a member of their party, and without agreeing with their party's platform. Most American voters who are not affiliated with one of the two major parties will nevertheless vote for their candidates (because otherwise their vote effectively doesn't count, as discussed at length elsewhere on this forum...)

It is probably best to keep that in the Bug Chasing/Gifting forum, because it's very likely that members into those things will mention them in the topic. If you want to start a topic that's explicitly NOT about bug chasing (per your comment here), it can go in the General Discussion forum. If you do this, please make it VERY CLEAR in your opening post what the focus of the discussion should be.

I was one of the ones who saw what you were doing and found humor in it. And no, you didn't piss off the moderation staff "big time". Things in this topic just got out of hand with petty insults. Several minor infractions were handed out and the thread was locked temporarily. We do have to read this stuff, y'know. But thanks for reminding me I intended to unlock it. Carry on, MacDuff! And I thoroughly agree with you about "lies designed to drive wedges between segments of our society." Please *do* speak out about those on BZ, and if you think they are seriously harmful, report the posts.

Does PEP prevent HIV like PrEP does?
viking8x6 replied to BritishCumdump's topic in HIV Risk & Risk Reduction
(1) Yes. 200/245mg emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil is the same as Truvada (though a slightly different dose than standard PrEP), and the raltegravir will only help. (2) Extremely unlikely, especially after you've started the PEP (which will stop the infection from progressing, and therefore the viral load from increasing).
